Mocana's Device Security Framework™ for Android™ is the latest release of our comprehensive developers security solution (aka "NanoPhone") for Google's revolutionary open mobile platform.

Providing essential data security features will be paramount to Android’s success. To move to new Android-based netbooks and phones, enterprises and consumers are looking for six fundamental security features:

Device Security Framework for Android - Netbooks

Android's open nature and
tremendous flexibility make it the
perfect platform for Netbooks.

A secure browser
Virtual Private Network clients to secure data communications between the device and corporate network
FIPS validated crypto
Malware and virus protection
Scalable and secure firmware updating and secure boot capabilities
Robust certificate handling features to authenticate devices, network services, and individuals to each other

Android developers must balance security functionality, application performance and battery life effectively without introducing new security holes into the platform. Mocana’s DSF for Android is the first and only open standards-based software package enabling developers to quickly and easily build the security features that enterprises and savvy consumers demand. It was designed in a modular framework allowing developers to pick and use only what they need at the time, while allowing them the flexibility to add more functionality later.

Using DSF for Android, developers can quickly add much-needed firewall, VPN, and encryption features to Android handsets and netbooks without compromising the performance, throughput or battery life of the platform.

DSF™ for Android™

The DSF for Android modular components include:

Mocana FIPS Certified Crypto Libraries (standard in all configurations of the DSF for Android).

NanoBoot™: Provides all the tools and firmware source code needed to perform pre-boot verification. NanoBoot uses strong cryptography to validate the BIOS, firmware, and boot loader images and can run in memory-constrained environments (depending on cryptographic configuration), requiring less than 8 KB uncompressed firmware space and less than 2 KB of RAM.

NanoCert™: Leverages mature technologies such as the Public Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS), specifically PKCS #10 and PKCS #7. Mocana internal HTTP implementation code provides the client-server transport protocol. Certificate management utility functions in the Mocana crypto library provide extremely efficient key generation and management, certificate parsing, encoding and decoding, and certificate store functions.

NanoDefender™: Mocana’s patent-pending new anti-malware product, is a device-based intrusion detection system that is designed to instantly detect and shut down malware or viruses before they have a chance to spread throughout the network or hijack data -- and it does so while eliminating “false positives.”

NanoDTLS™ (Client): Mocana delivers an open, standards-based, full featured, RFC compliant Embedded DTLS Client that is easy to use. Mocana NanoDTLS is uniquely architected with an asynchronous core to fully leverage hardware acceleration, is portable and small footprint. It is ideally suited to securing voice and video.

NanoEAP™ (Client): Includes 14 different authentication methods and supports stand alone and pass thru authentication modes and acts as a framework and transport mechanism for AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) protocols.

NanoSec™ (Client): Designed from the ground up for use with IP connected devices, it also includes support for IKEv2. IPsec is a standard for securing (IP) Internet Protocol communications by encrypting and/or authenticating all packets at the network layer. The Client is standards-based and interoperates with IPsec enabled devices on the network.

NanoSSH™ (Client): Designed for logging into and executing commands on a networked computer and provides secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. The SSH Client is standard-based and interoperates with SSH Servers.

NanoSSL™ (Client): Provides endpoint authentication, protecting against eavesdropping, message forgery and interference. The Client is standards-based and interoperates with any SSL Server. Both are commonly used for securing remote device management via a web browser.

NanoWireless™: Mocana delivers a standards-based, full featured, IEEE-compliant WPA2 client software solution that is easy to use. The Mocana NanoWireless solution is uniquely architected with an asynchronous core to fully leverage hardware acceleration, is portable and has a small footprint.

NanoUpdate™: An easy to use, high performance Secure Firmware Update solution. Mocana NanoUpdate enables firmware images and other messages to be securely delivered to devices in the field automatically, therefore eliminating the need for insecure, user-intensive methods, like email, TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and CD/DVD.

We know that developers working on mobile platforms like Android are on ultra- compressed development cycles. You don’t have a lot of time to think about, let alone implement, security features that have been optimized to maximize performance and battery requirements for Linux-based handsets. That’s why we’ve built DSF for Android. Now, you don’t need to be a crypto expert to make the design decisions required to build high-performing security applications in these embedded environments. The components share a common API and crypto library that hides the complexity of cryptography and reduces the risks of inexperienced developers introducing new security holes into their own code.

DSF™ for Android™ Benefits

Mocana’s DSF for Android helps developers manage their memory footprint, maximize secure application throughout and still stay extremely portable. That means you'll be ready for the next CPU that comes down the road, without having to redo all your code. Product managers will love it because DSF for Android will help their teams get their code to market much, much faster with a standards-based security software suite. Now your development teams can focus on the compelling feature advantages that will help them differentiate from the competition.

Dramatically Reduce Time to Market
With development cycles cut in half, don’t waste valuable time building security from scratch. DSF for Android is the culmination of six years of development work backed by our decades of experience in the security industry. We've already done all the painstaking optimization work for you, resulting in DSF for Android's incredibly small footprint and best-in-class performance. Our implementations of protocols like IPSec and SSL can run in less than 50KB of memory, yet are 2x-4x faster than open source implementations — and they're exhaustively tested for interoperability. Now, you can focus on what’s important to your business – getting your killer Android apps to market, first!

No Need to Sacrifice Performance for Security
Consumers and corporate users need security but they expect true 3G or 4G performance in an elegantly designed handset. So you don't want to let computationally-intensive crypto operations suck all the Wow! factor or batter power out of your Android device or applications.

Competing device security architectures are synchronous, which severely limits the number of cryptography jobs that can be offloaded to silicon at any one time. Synchronous architectures also severely limit the way that completed cryptography jobs can be propagated back up the stack. Because Mocana's DSF for Android features an asynchronous, event-driven architecture, cryptographic jobs are easily offloaded to different CPU cores or silicon channels, fully enabling today's multi-core processors to do your application’s work in parallel.

At the heart of the DSF for Android is an asynchronous core that leverages our patented Mocana Acceleration Harness™ — a software layer that virtualizes and manages crypto offload from software to hardware speeding up crypto operations by as much as 400%, depending on the hardware platform to allow the best power and performance.

Tested and Supported by Actual Humans
When it comes to security, you can’t cut corners. But with Mocana, you can significantly reduce your testing efforts because we’ve done a significant amount already. DSF for Android is pre-optimized and exhaustively tested so you can focus on what’s important – getting to market ahead of your competitors. We’ve invested an enormous amount of money into our testing infrastructure that runs 24x7 against thousands of code scripts so you don’t have to. Another benefit of choosing Mocana is our built-in verification process. While other programs only have one error code, “-1”, our developer suite ships with over 1,000 unique code errors built-in so you can pinpoint bugs instantly. Because we’ve done the rigorous testing and our support organization is available 24/7/365, you can have enterprise grade security in weeks, not months.
